Blind Faith

Ladies, just wanted to throw out a warning to those on birth control pills.

After experiencing some negative symptoms (generally acting loopy), and hearing that other women had as well, I contacted my (male) OB/GYN regarding a change to my perscription. He *claimed* that the symptoms had never been associated with birth control.

My experiences, and those of three other young women, convinced me otherwise.

I went to my doctor and told him that I had felt very stressed since taking the pill, often it was symtoms of stress with no immediate cause. He switched me to a lower dose pill, and now I'm feeling much better. He also suggested the nuva ring (I think that is the name) as an alternative if the pills didn't work out, so that might be worth asking about.

And yet science says it doesn't affect sex drive.
